Gumbo Filé is supposed to add flavor and substance.
We'll see.
I'm adding to the glut of already superfluous information and opinion on the worldwide web.
What will make this blog distinct from all the other self-important know-it-alls out there?
Nothing, really, except that this will be the only place on the worldwide web where you can find all GumboFilé all the time.
You can ignore me, bookmark me, or add me to your list of blocked sites.
I'll be right here.

In Washington higher taxes are always the solution

As many others have done, Virginia's Democratic Senator-elect Jim Webb recently complained of an "ever-widening divide" in America, claiming "the top 1% now takes in an astounding 16% of national income, up from 8% in 1980". Those same figures have been repeatedly echoed in all major newspapers. Yet the statement is clearly false.
